Limelite High Impact Finishing Plaster for Mesh Membranes

Limelite High Impact Finishing plaster is a hard, durable and breathable finishing plaster designed for use with Limelite Renovating Plaster as well as traditional sand and cement mixes.

It can be used to provide a hard-wearing finish for demanding applications such as social housing, commercial buildings, schools and even hospitals.

Excellent finish
Limelite plasters are lightweight, easy to mix and make it easy to achieve a smooth, matt finish that complements traditional and historic buildings. It can be left unpainted for a natural, off white finish. They are applied using standard plastering tools and techniques without any additional training requirement.

Trusted performance
Limelite Plasters have been trusted by conservation professionals in some of the most sensitive and demanding heritage environments such as historic buildings, museums and art galleries.

Tough, hard wearing finish
Designed for improved impact resistance compared to traditional lime mortar. This makes it ideal for busy domestic or commercial environments where walls may be damaged.

Reduces mould growth
Improved breathability and less retained moisture helps to avoid mould growth and efflorescence. Lime is naturally aseptic and inhibits the growth of bacteria and mould.

Quick drying
Rapid drying and can decorate in just 24 hours.

Reduced shrinkage
Low shrinkage and high flexibility reduces the chances of cracking and crazing.

BBA approved system
The Limelite Breathable Plaster System has been independently verified and certified by the BBA.

Repair of damp or flooded properties
Can be applied to damp walls, making it a fast, effective solution for repair of flood damaged buildings. As it is breathable, it allows any moisture still present in the substrate to be released. It also helps to mitigate future flood damage by helping surfaces to dry out more quickly.

Fire resistance and thermal performance
Lime is Fire resistant – non-combustible to comply with BS476:4. The Limelite Breathable Plaster system has been proven to enhance the insulation properties of a wall.

Responsibly sourced
All of our products are manufactured in the UK and certified under BES 6001 Responsible sourcing. Tarmac was the first company within the cement and lime sectors to be awarded the BES6001 ‘Excellent’ rating across its entire product range.
